Everybody is excited about where we are right now. It's a 12-man dance. We've got one of the tickets, so let's go party.
anyone locker outside
Not to anyone outside of the locker room.
aside ball blocks line man mike offense
That guy's like Mike Alstott beefed up, ... Aside from being a big man in general, he catches the ball well and he blocks well. They line him up all over the field. He's as important to that offense as anybody.
acting feisty hands happen point running trying
It was just two guys, testosterone running high, acting like idiots, ... I was trying to get his hands off me. You live with those things. Obviously, you don't want them to happen at that point in the game, but I'm a feisty dude, he's a feisty dude. It's football.
against bit great knows league quality rest road week
The rest of the league knows now that we can be even better this year. We got after them a little bit tonight. Week 1, on the road against a great quarterback and a quality opponent. That's doing something.
couple definitely golf hit nerves realize shake
The nerves definitely hit you. It hit me a couple of times. You get over it, you shake it off. You have to realize it's just a golf game.
It's not always about the sacks. It's about the quarterback pressure.
bottom matter ugly whether win
No matter how we get it done, whether it's ugly or it's pretty, a win is a win. That's the bottom line.

It seemed like they knew they weren't going to be down there again. I guess they thought their best chance was to throw it.

Every year is a do-or-die year ... especially when the cap numbers start creeping up on the older guys. (Allen) found a way to get it done for this off-season. You never know if we're going to have to be creative and do it again next off-season.

It works out in the end for the good guys and he's definitely one of those.

We've been sloppy all year. But we've found way to make plays.
asked came critical crunch guys overall stuck time together
We are very critical on ourselves, but overall I think we did everything that was asked of us. We stuck together and had guys in the right spots. When it came to crunch time we were able to make the plays.
advantage call either luck
There is no such thing as luck. Bounces go either way every day you take advantage of those situations. You call it luck and I call it being prepared.
